Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Ashdown, AR

379 Reviews

Millwood State Park Campground permits pets throughout its camping areas with fire rings, picnic tables, and water hookups. Texarkana KOA and Millwood Landing Golf & RV Resort also accommodate pets in their cabin rentals, offering alternatives to traditional tent or RV camping. The campgrounds maintain standard leash requirements, with most visitors adhering to pet policies. Millwood State Park features well-cared-for sites with lake access, though the nearby dam road generates considerable noise from lumber trucks. Beard's Bluff Park and White Cliffs Park provide additional pet-friendly options with electric hookups and water access, suitable for both tent and RV camping. Sunrise RV Park includes a swimming pool among its pet-friendly amenities.

Hiking trails near these campgrounds provide exercise opportunities for dogs, with Cossatot River State Park offering pet-friendly paths through forested areas leading to water access points. The sandbar area at Cossatot River allows dogs to enjoy the cool water alongside their owners. Millwood Lake provides shoreline access for pets, though visitors should remain vigilant for wildlife including alligators. Some campgrounds experience issues with off-leash dogs despite posted rules. Campers traveling with pets should note that summer temperatures in the region can become quite hot, necessitating adequate shade and water access. Most campgrounds maintain clean facilities with regular maintenance, though bathroom conditions vary between premium and standard sites at some locations.

    Texarkana RV Park & Event Center

    Not impressed

    Made reservations for a back in site. Upon check in, nobody was in the office. Called the number on the door and was directed to park in the pull-through immediately at the entrance. Gate is broken and doesn’t close, nobody at the check in, RIGHT off the highway. Didn’t feel safe. Very loud. Playground area was very old and not maintained. “Dog park” was a 6ft x 6ft chain link square. Lots of permanent lots that are kind of gross. There is a new Love’s hookup & Sunrise RV parks nearby— will be using those in the future! Will not be back.

    Texarkana KOA

    Nasty

    Te office is nasty dirty has a moldy smell. The bathhouse has mold on shower curtains no soap to wash hands problem flushing toilet.  There was wires zip tied to lady's side . No security after hours and no way to get help after lady leaves at 5. The dog park had poop everywhere and other campers had dogs running off chain. No lights at night was very scary the back of park was awful.  Grass and weeds growing up needs a major clean up and maintenance!!! The playground is near drains that child could fall and very outdated and ran down. Wifi was very poor to say less

    Sandbar Area Campsites — Cossatot River State Park - Natural Area

    Memorial Weekend

    This place is a beautifull forested remote area and you have to drive over 4.5 miles to get to the campsite, its a two lane dirt road, lookout for deer and other critters crossing. We stayed at the walk in campsites, they have those and a few where you can park next to your site, don’t expect very much privacy, you can’t make reservations, they are all first come first serve and you pay at your site. All are tent only. we stayed at #20 with a short walk from the parking area but a little bit too close to #21, 18 and 19 seem to be the ones with more privacy. We did have a nice shaded site with a fire ring, a barbecue grill, a picnic table and nice surface for your tent. the camping area is just a short walk to the sandbar where you can enjoy the cool floating water. The bathrooms are adequate but no running water, therefore don’t expect showers. We camped with our dog Lulu, the sites are pet friendly and she had fun in the water too. There is an abundance of wild life, keep an eye for snakes and thicks!

    Nice stop

    Nice park just outside Ashdown AR. The dam road is very close and the lumber trucks are load and often. Nice sites and well cared for. Very friendly staff. I’d recommend staying by the lake. Not as much traffic noise and better views.

    Piney Point

    Clean campground

    Clean campground with decent sized sites. Only a handful are 50 amp, which we were fortunate to get. The park isn’t very large (about 50 sites). Exterior sites have more space between them than interior sites. Lots of people pulling their boats up to the shoreline and docking there. Lots of shade. Nice little campground, but because of the size, don’t expect to be “away from it all.” Nice playground for those with kids. Rocky Point campground (also COE) is just around the corner. Only cons (not the park, but camping etiquette): I have noticed a lot of folks not adhering to the “pets on leash” rule, and people also don’t seem to mind walking through others’ campsites. Beautiful trees, water is nice, and the campground is close to town if you need to run out for supplies. Will definitely camp here again.
